The correct matches are as follows:

1. FREE WRITING: Writing down first thoughts on a topic in a timed session, without pausing to check for relevance or grammar.

Brain storming is the process by which creative ideas and solutions are generated via intensive group discussion. There are lots of techniques that can be used during brain storming sessions and three of them are pre writing, clustering and three perspectives.

Free writing is a pre-writing method that involves continuous writing of thoughts and ideas for a set period of time without any regard for spelling, grammar, logical procession, punctuation, or structure; during this time one allow his thoughts to flow freely. Free writing produces the raw materials that are used for developing usable ideas. Pre writing is very useful in helping one to put down ideas that one has not considered previously.

2. CLUSTERING: Connecting ideas for a topic using different shapes and color-coding to identify how the ideas are related.

Clustering is another technique that is used during brain storming session. It involves writing down keywords or phrases that are relevant to one’s topic of interest and using drawn lines to identify the connections that exist among them. This method allows one to brainstorm in a visual manner.

3. THREE PERSPECTIVES: Describing the topic, tracing its history, and examining its connections with related topics.

Three perspectives is another method that is used during brain storming session. Considering a thing from three different sides help one to see it more completely and clearly. This method involves answering questions for each of the three perspectives considered and then looking for relationship or differences that exist among them. To do this, one has to describe the topic in detail, trace the history of the topic and find out how the topic relate to others.
